Curriculum Vitae

Thomas Seeger received the Diploma in Physics (Dipl.- Phys.) University-GHS-Essen, Department of Laser- and Plasmaphysics and the PhD (Dr.-Ing.) in Chemical Engineering in University of Erlangen Germany, in 1989 and 1994, respectively, and then In 2006 he was graduated the doctoral habilitation at the Technical Faculty of the University of Erlangen.

In 1989-1994 he was the Research Scientist at the University of Bochum and University of Erlangen. In 1994 he was the Senior Researcher at the University of Erlangen.

In 1996-2010 he was head of the group: Applied Spectroscopy at the University of Erlangen.

Since 2010 he is Full Professor at the University of Siegen and head of the Institute of Engineering Thermodynamic at the University of Siegen.

Research area and experience:

Active in different areas of optical and laser diagnostics for more than 20 years with a strong expertise in the development and application of new laser diagnostic techniques as measurement tools for thermodynamics, fluid dynamics and particle and combustion technology. Worldwide leading expert in the application of laser scattering techniques (Mie, Rayleigh, Raman), of laser-induced fluorescence technique (LIF) and non linear optical measurement techniques like laser induced grating technique (LIG) and coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) for the investigation of fluid phase systems and in particular of technical combustion processes.
